Comment on Calling Google's bluff: Which patent is bogus? Why not open source their code?parent

He says it right there in the article:

Google hasn't innovated a single fucking thing in over a decade... While Apple and Microsoft and Nokia and Nortel and Blackberry and IBM and many others were actually innovating in smartphones and mobile technologies for over a decade you were busy making monopoly profits in a different market. Now you want into the big global smartphone market. And essentially want all the intellectual property of these companies to be effectively voided.

I don't get any sense that admires Microsoft per se; as I read it, he's just comparing and contrasting with respect to innovation in the smartphone space, and finds Google lacking.
